The Tuesdays at 10pm timeslot has been a big ratings problem for ABC for quite awhile. Show after show has been cancelled. Will their new Forever series change that trend? Will it be renewed for a second season? Stay tuned.
On the Forever TV show, New York City’s star medical examiner is Doctor Henry Morgan (Ioan Gruffudd). He can ascertain things that most can not because of his vast experience — he’s been alive for 200 years but can’t figure out how or why. The rest of the cast includes Alana de la Garza, Lorraine Toussaint, Donnie Keshawarz, Joel David Moore, and Judd Hirsch.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — typically around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
5/8 update: ABC has cancelled Forever after one season. Details here.
Final season averages: 1.12 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 4.93 million total viewers.

Due to a Nielsen glitch, some of the early ratings of the 2014-15 season were revised a few weeks later.
Note: These are the final national numbers (unless noted with an “*”). These are different from the fast affiliate numbers which are just estimates of the actual ratings. The final nationals are typically released within 24 hours of the programming or, in the case of weekends and holidays, a couple days later.
What do you think? Do you like the Forever TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
RENEW this show! It is the best show on TV. My husband and I watch this every Tues night and we tape it in case we are unable to view it when it is shown. The show is well written, different, with great acting, suspense and humor. Give the story line a romance between Henry and Det. Martinez!
Good plots, good acting and a different side story. Castle with a time twist plot. Please renew
please please renew!
I am begging for this show to get renewed. I never watch tv, but when I do this show is at the top of the list. <3
PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL this show. I can’t say enough about the concept, cast, story lines, etc. Very original. Very clever and smart. Thank you.
Please renew Forever! I love this show! So many people do!
This is a show I look forward to seeing every week. I love the characters and the plots, it had the suspense and the humor to keep me watching week after week.
This show needs to be renewed for a 2ND season. Please don’t give up on it.
Please, please renew this series. Forever is one of the best shows I have seen in a long time. I just purchased the entire series on iTunes so I can watch the episodes again. I am a middle school language arts teacher and a show has to be really good for me to give up an hour of valuable time to watch. You simply must renew Forever!!!
Show should be renewed.
Please, I love Forever! I think that this show is not ordinary . The scenario is a good idea , it needs only a spin
Forever is a great show…they should definitely renew it! Its my go to show on Tuesday nights!
Forever should be renewed – amazing plot.
If the network has consistently had problems with a particular time slot, they may as well keep the same show in there for a while. Some shows just take a while to build viewership.
Reminds me of those football teams who get a new coach every year and still have losing seasons. Keeping the same coach won’t make things worse, and perhaps reducing the chaos and turmoil will have a positive effect.
Just renew “Forever,” and save yourselves all kinds of headaches.
Please renew! This show is interesting, well written and well acted. I look forward to watching it each week.
Please, please, please don’t cancel Forever. It’s one of my favorite shows on Tuesday nights! I look forward to seeing what the writers have in store for Henry. I enjoy television that has a nostalgic feel to it.
